The latest weather forecast is extreme plus several people are scrambling to prepare for the incoming winter time storm. They are calling for chilly rain followed by at least a foot of snow plus I only hope that my buddy and I don’t lose power. Whenever there is ice in the mix there is consistently the occasion that the power lines come down plus that leaves several in trouble because they have no heat. I know that my family took precautions a few years back plus installed a wood burning stove, but they have not had this year’s firewood delivered as yet. Any long term power outage will be a important problem. When I asked my dad if he wanted to use the truck to go choice up some firewood he declined the offer plus said he would be fine. He joked plus said that he could burn the study room chairs if he needed to. I don’t think that my mom would find that funny. Instead, I took over an extra generator that I had in the garage along with a gas can. I instructed dad on how to use it just in case. They have a few space boilers that can run off of that if needed. I hope that it will never come to that or that my dad is not extreme about burning the chairs. My buddy and I have been through storms like this before plus all my buddy and I can do is hope for the best. I actually think that my folks should look into the replacement of a whole home generator too at this point.
